About 112,408 women 15 and over were employed in the state, with enforcement not yet set up, as the 1915 statute requires the industrial board to fix reasonable income brackets. The minimum wage for experienced workers is $5.25 per day, with adjustments possible if tips and allowances fail to provide sufficient support.

Constitutional wage law for women workers struck down
The text notes a 40 000 reduction in employed women including garment workers and domestic staff, with Assistant Labor Commissioner Harry Malcolm predicting far reaching enforcement effects and a payroll rise. The law, 22 years old, was ruled unconstitutional by the U S Supreme Court, Holt citing the overturn of a similar Washington law. It sets a minimum wage of 1 per hour for women with under six months and 1 25 for those with six months experience in any industry.
